Catalina's Hideaway

The Hideaway is one of the most beautiful hotels I’ve ever been to. The decor looks like something that came out of a luxury magazine. It is quiet, relaxing and truly paradise! The owners were so kind and helpful. I cannot get enough of their breakfast too… the banana pancakes and breakfast burritos are to die for! I’ll be back for sure.

Very relaxing stay, the staff and the owners are super friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended as a place to stay if your visiting the area or just need a get away!!

Unser Beach Cabin war sehr schön ausgestattet. Tolle Fliesen in Dusche und Bad. Kaffee ist inklusive. Traumhafte Gartenanlage, sehr schöner Pool. Allerdings steht in der Ausschreibung zwei Doppelbetten. Es handelt sich hierbei um ein Hochbett mit sehr steiler Treppe. Es wird extrem warm und die Klimaanlage war überfordert.

Staff members are amazing Very nice.

Wenn man Übernachtung mit Frühstück bucht und dann nur 3 kleine Gerichte zur Auswahl hat und dazu Kaffee bezahlen musst, macht es leider das Gesamtbild kaputt. Ansonsten echt super. Ambiente toll, Küche super.

Catalina’s Hideaway is simply magical. From the moment we arrived, we felt like we had stepped into a little paradise. The setting is stunning, with beautiful design and thoughtful details that make the entire place feel special. Everything is set up so well—whether you want to relax, explore, or connect with others, it all flows perfectly. The staff is incredible; so welcoming, warm, friendly, and attentive! The food is outstanding, with different menus for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Every meal was delicious, and we kept wanting to try more! The yoga deck is a dream, whether for the daily classes or your own training session (there are even some weights available). There’s also a beach volleyball court, a stargazing area, a gorgeous pool, and direct access to a beautiful beach for long walks. Plus, they offer massages, tours, and easy access to diving centres (about 20mins away) in Santa Catalina, which made it the perfect base for our PADI certification. We also had the pleasure of meeting Ryan and Anthea, whose story and passion for this place shine through in every detail. Their love for music adds a special touch to the atmosphere, making it even more unique. The vibe is social yet laid-back, like a boutique retreat with the warmth of a hostel, but for all types of travelers—singles, couples, families, and friends alike. Honestly, everything was perfect. Catalina’s Hideaway was one of the absolute highlights of our three-week adventure in Panama, and we wouldn’t hesitate to go back.
